go-reader is a simple library for managing the reading of uncompressed text from underlying resources.
Using cross compilers, this library can also be called by other languages. This library is cross compiled into a Shared Object file (*.so). The Shared Object file can be called by C, C++, and Python on Linux machines. See the examples folder for patterns that you can use. This library is also compiled to pure JavaScript using GopherJS.
CLI
You can use the command line tool to convert between formats.
Usage: reader -uri URI [-alg [bzip2|gzip|snappy|none]] [-verbose] [-version]
Options:
-alg string
Stream input compression algorithm for nodes, using: bzip2, gzip, snappy, or none. (default "none")
-aws_access_key_id string
Defaults to value of environment variable AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
-aws_default_region string
Defaults to value of environment variable AWS_DEFAULT_REGION.
-aws_secret_access_key string
Defaults to value of environment variable AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.
-aws_session_token string
Defaults to value of environment variable AWS_SESSION_TOKEN.
-buffer_size int
The input reader buffer size (default 4096)
-hdfs_name_node string
Defaults to value of environment variable HDFS_DEFAULT_NAME_NODE.
-help
Print help
-uri string
"stdin" or uri to input file
-version
Prints version to stdout
Go
You can import go-reader as a library with:
import (
"github.com/spatialcurrent/go-reader/reader"
)
...See reader in GoDoc for information on how to use Go API.

CLI
The command line go-reader program can be built with the scripts/build_cli.sh script.
JavaScript
You can compile go-reader to pure JavaScript with the scripts/build_javascript.sh script.
Shared Object
The scripts/build_so.sh script is used to build a Shared Object (*.go), which can be called by C, C++, and Python on Linux machines.
Changing Destination
The default destination for build artifacts is go-reader/bin, but you can change the destination with a CLI argument. For building on a Chromebook consider saving the artifacts in /usr/local/go/bin, e.g., bash scripts/build_cli.sh /usr/local/go/bin
